CTARC members have available to them the Morningstar
remote base station, which has been in operation since April 2018.

This project was
the creation of Fred / ZS1FZ, who has most generously made it available
to CTARC members.

The kilowatt HF station with VHF capabilities
is located up on a hill at the Morningstar airfield near Durbanville.
It can be controlled directly via the internet.right from a club members
home computer, using free software, It opens up the world of long distance
ham radio communications with efficient dipoles and rotatable Yagi antennas.
There is even an app for controlling Morningstar via a (Android) smart
phone!

This is another good reason to join us and
become a member of the CTARC. Contact our Club Secretary for details
on how to join up and use the Morningstar remote controlled base station.
